reporting live south of big bear, edward lawrence. now back to you. >> edward, a couple of questions. do authorities have any idea how long it's going to take to identify that body they removed from the cabin? >> reporter: frank, they are saying it could be as little as two days or it could be several weeks. it just depends on what kind of forensic tests need to be done on that body to determine a positive id. if it's dental records then it could be done fairly easily but if it's a dna test, they have to send it off and get that completed. >> edward, this manhunt that lasted for days, is there any indication that dorner had help? >> reporter: yeah. at this point that's one of the things they are looking into. they don't believe at this point that he had any help and investigators are looking to see and they made no qualms about it, they said that if somebody did help christopher dorner at any point along the way, that those people will be subject to prosecution. >> hopefully, this saga is over. edward lawrence live in san bernardino c
